FRONT PAGE

Because of an editing error, an article on Wednesday about reform at Uber misstated part of the name of the law firm that investigated sexual harassment and other wrongdoing at the ride-hailing company. As correctly noted later in the article, it is Covington & Burling (not Burlington).

INTERNATIONAL

An article on Friday about the arrest of the longtime fugitive Masaaki Osaka referred incorrectly in some copies to the target of the 1971 protest where the crime Mr. Osaka was wanted for — throwing a homemade firebomb that killed a police officer — took place. The protest was against the terms of a treaty under which the United States returned to Japan sovereignty over Okinawa, not Osaka.

•

A capsule summary on Tuesday for an article about the decades-long rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Qatar omitted the context in describing the population of Qatar. The country’s population was one-seventh that of Connecticut’s in 1995 when its crown prince seized power; that is not a current comparison. (Qatar now has about 2.6 million people and Connecticut about 3.6 million.)

NATIONAL

An article on Wednesday about the effects on climate change of the retirement of several nuclear power plants omitted an affiliation of John Hanger, who commented on the possible closure of a reactor at Three Mile Island. While Mr. Hanger is a former Pennsylvania environmental secretary, he is also an outside adviser to Exelon, the utility that operates Three Mile Island.

NEW YORK

An article on Saturday about the removal of slides from some New York City playgrounds described incorrectly federal safety rules for playground equipment. They are guidelines, not regulations.

•

An article on Tuesday about the U.S.S. Ling, a World War II-era submarine, compared incorrectly the length of the vessel to a football field. At 312 feet, the submarine is shorter — not longer — than a football field, which is 360 feet.

THE ARTS

An article last Thursday about the comedian Lee Camp, host of the comedy news show “Redacted Tonight” on the RT America network, described incorrectly the departure of an employee at the network, Liz Wahl. She was a journalist for the network during the gestation of “Redacted Tonight,” but quit the network before — not after — the show’s premiere. The article also described incorrectly two comedians who performed with Mr. Camp at a stand-up show at the Cutting Room last month. Only one was a correspondent for “Redacted Tonight,” not both.

•

A report in the “Arts, Briefly” column on Saturday about the New York bookstore Books of Wonder misidentified the store that served as an inspiration for the bookstore in the romantic comedy “You’ve Got Mail.” It was Eeyore’s, a children’s bookstore on the Upper West Side that closed in 1993 — not Books of Wonder.

•

A film review on Wednesday about Frédéric Mermoud’s “Moka” referred incorrectly to travels by the main character, Diane, to investigate her son’s death. She travels to Évian, France, from Lausanne, Switzerland, where she lives — not the other way around.

OBITUARIES

An obituary on June 7 about the ballet master Sergei Vikharev misstated the date of his birth in 1962. It was Feb. 15, not May 2.
